Getting vaccinated in style.
A new trend has emerged on social media that includes people getting dressed in their Sunday best to get their COVID-19 vaccine.
Many people who ordered evening gowns for events like weddings and proms and weren't able to wear them since they were canceled as a result of the pandemic are now putting them to good use.
Those who have managed to secure a vaccine appointment are showing up in style for the big moment.
One woman named Ashlie posted a photo prior to her inoculation with the caption: "Wearing a sequined full-length gown to my vaccine appointment because it’s the EVENT OF MY YEAR."
When asked about her decision to wear the gown to her appointment, she told Cosmopolitan: "I just wanted to celebrate the joyousness of the occasion and I wanted to bring some joy to people who have been working long hours."
Ashlie received plenty of positive responses on Twitter with others sharing their special vaccination outfits, which also included fun costumes and even specially customized T-shirts.
After the isolated year we've had, any reason to roll out the red carpet is a good reason.
